  • Keep up with Phil Meadows

    Many of you know Phil Meadows from his time as the art director for Fanzing.com or as the illustrator of the comic works I’ve written (Job Wanted, Time Meddlers and Metro Med).  Phil and his wife Sherry are currently in China adopting their second child, and you can follow their adventures in their blog.  Their…

  • Batman podcast part 2 is coming

    I’m determined to get the microphone issues resolved.  I know, you think I’d have done this by now, but I’m trying to track down the color-coding schematic for my Logitech surround sound soundcard.   Then I have to pull the computer away from the wall and get my skinny little niece to crawl behind it, sit…

  • Classic comic recommendations from the readership?

    Hello everyone. My birthday is coming up and I want to add more variety to my Amazon wishlist.  With my local comic shop kaput, I don’t really read many comics anymore.  I’ve finally gotten down to the dregs of my stockpiled trade paperbacks, like The Transformations of Jimmy Olsen.  After years of everyone raving about…

  • I’m not dead! I’m getting better. I think I’ll go for a walk…

    Sorry to disappear on you, folks. My computer went into the shop…in order to get transferred to my new monster gamer system computer! I told the guy at Miracle Computer that I didn’t need a gamer system. The only non-Solitaire, non-M.A.M.E. game I play anymore is Small Rockets’ Red Ace Squadron. I haven’t even cracked…

  • We’re back!

    Sorry to disappear on you all. Unbeknownst to all but the contributors, we ran into a small problem in upgrading the Movable Type system and the system was down. (Don’t touch that light switch, The Cheat!) It’s now up. And the infrastructure has definitely changed. All you contributors had better log in and post something!…

  • New Stuff Coming!

    5 days and no new posts? Actually, I’m halfway through one, but it’s a biggie. Sorry to leave you all hanging. I was going to have it done tonight, but my seedlings needed transplanting. (Yes, I’m a gardener in addition to the household chef, accountant, web designer, breadwinner, blogger and spare time comic book writer.)…
